MSL2

Gene
MSL2
Protein
Mechanosensitive ion channel protein 2, chloroplastic
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
673 amino acids
Function
Mechanosensitive channel that opens in response to stretch forces in the membrane lipid bilayer (By similarity). Controls plastid size, shape, and perhaps division during normal plant development by altering ion flux in response to changes in membrane tension. Acts as a component of the chloroplast division machinery.
Similarity
Belongs to the MscS (TC 1.A.23) family.

Gene
MSL2
Protein
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MSL2
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
577 amino acids
Function
Component of histone acetyltransferase complex responsible for the majority of histone H4 acetylation at lysine 16 which is implicated in the formation of higher-order chromatin structure. Acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that promotes monoubiquitination of histone H2B at 'Lys-35' (H2BK34Ub), but not that of H2A. This activity is greatly enhanced by heterodimerization with MSL1. H2B ubiquitination in turn stimulates histine H3 methylation at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me) and 'Lys-79' (H3K79me) and leads to gene activation, including that of HOXA9 and MEIS1.
Similarity
Belongs to the MSL2 family.
